Nice job OP! The wife or gf apparently will always have a bypass tool on her!

Thanks mate! My gf was complaining about the underwire while I was picking, and I figured I'd try it out.

How thick are these? could one make picks out of them

I'd say that they're thinner than or as thick as my Bogota Ti flats, so they should have little issue entering a keyway as demonstrated, but I would recommend using another tool as a tension wrench.

Also, unless one owns a dremel or other machining tool, turning it from a flat curved wire into a pick-shape would be nigh-impossible, as the ends are flat and rectangular. So not great for picking, but as you can see, an effective shim!
